By reversing the product (upper surface of the magnet, N
S), you can reali.e different result
of the experiment to be caused by changing the flow direction of electromagnetic field.
Specification
[Main Body]
Ferrite Magnet: 150 x 23 x 8 mm
Rail (SUS304): 170 x 10 x 1 mm (x2)
[Accessory]
Aluminum Pipe:
φ
6 x 50 mm
How to use
①
Place the product on hori.ontal surface excluding table/desk made of steel.
②
Put the aluminum pipe across the rails and check if the pipe doesn’t move on the rails.
③
Connect edges of the rails with Genecon (Narika’s hand-held generator) or with power supply
and send DC current of 3~6V to the rails. You will see the aluminum pipe rolling over in
accordance with the Fleming's left-hand rule.
④
You will see the direction of the pipe rolling over the rails changes every time you change the
direction of the current flow and/or change the upper surface of the magnet.
(Note) Be sure to polish the surface of the pipe and rails by using alcohol when you find the poor
contact between the pipe and rails due to stain on the surface.
